I don't understand the concept of seducing a woman.
Yeah, I get that you want to get the woman to be interested in you, but what do you do to achieve that?
Do guys have to impress them? By talking? Body language? Or is it something completely different?
I don't understand the slightest bit of that mechanism. If anyone (especially females) could kinda enlighten me on that subject I would be very grateful.

Also, I'm not a virgin, I've had meaningful relationships in the past, it's just that I've never really 'seduced' a girl - they mostly seduced me. So I just kinda played along and, after several awkward situations, everything kinda went okay.
>>17254101
Also, please don't give me references to PUA webpages/books, unless you have a really good reason. I've read most of that stuff, and it's mostly oriented on a method of seducing as many girls as possible - it mostly doesn't say a word of how to actually do it.

Guy in mid 20's trying to get back in the game after a looong hiatus. I look healthy, can be funny around friends, and like to play sports casually.
I've been playing a pickup sport with this girl once every week. I find her very attractive but I can't tell how she sees me at all because she's so "nice" to everyone. She often laughs at my jokes but she's always smiling and positive that I can't make any meaningful deduction out of it. We hardly get to talk during our game since everyone's intensely running around and when the...

Don't know senpai but giving you a bump because I've got the same question
>>17254084
Its a lost art dont know how to communicate with them either and the girl i liked was a qt as fuck latina, you ever find out let me know
Just ask her if she wants to do something outside the of sport. Worst case she says no.
I just did it and it went terrible (she said yes) but yeah, so this week's game will be interesting but whatever. I'm glad I did it.
How can i deal with being a manlet?
Step 1: leave /r9k/ and don't set foot there again.
Step 2: stop giving a fuck.

Like every other shortcoming in life. Own it. Embrace it. Make fun of it publically. Dont give a fuck. I make fun of my small dick all the time and ppl love that shit.
I was babysitting my 12 year old cousin recently and we had both fallen asleep. When I woke, she was nowhere to be so I checked the basement. My now ex bf was in the basement with my little cousin was crying and I noticed that her clothes were all messed up. She wouldn't tell me why she was crying and when I asked my ex when he got there and why he didn't wake me up, he kept insisting that my little cousin let him in. Between that and a few other things we argued and broke up that night
Next thing I know, I see a post on reddit with him talking about what sex is...

Call the police, tell them what you know and let them handle it from there.
I called but there is no proof and my cousin refuses to tell me if anything happened. Idk why she was crying when I got there....
You could consider telling her parents. But knowing parents they might make it worse. I mean, rape can be pretty bad but the shaming and guilt tripping done by society after the act is pretty bad as well.
>yesterday told myself I'd start working hard today and doing all the learning I want to do
>it's today
>I'm telling myself I'll start tomorrow
How do I start working really fucking hard? I have shitloads of free time and waste it all on internet browsing, watching sports, and eating junk food (the gym keeps me from being fat).
Picrelated summarises what I think I'd look like after having the epiphany that gives me motivation.
Simple, you need to get outside your comfort zone.
The most scientific explanation of what a comfort zone is relates it to anxiety levels. Your comfort zone is any type of behavior that keeps you at a steadily low anxiety level. Imagine something you do all the time, like watching sports or internet browsing. Everyday activities that you’re used to won’t make you feel anxious and uneasy, so they’re part of your comfort zone.
Bring your laptop to any public places, turn off wifi, and soon enough you'll start doing all the learning you want to do.

I'll tell you tomorrow.

Is it wrong to dismiss a relationship with a girl because she is disabled? This girl (24) who I always felt was a cousin to me hung out one night. One thing led to another and we had sex (25). Never saw her sexually before that but she is disabled. Just her legs, not her head. But still a turn-off for me. Is it wrong to not want a relationship with her just because she is disabled? I was her first time she says so I don't want to make her feel like I used her. We are friends, what should I say.
My group of male friends are basically saying "Ignoring her disability...

>rejecting Emi
I don't even know where to start with you.
>>17254056
You asshole why get into this shitty situation. Be with her for sometime& act normal otherwise you will soon be responsible for her suicide.
>>17254056
it's not wrong and you are obviously not ready for this relationship it's a turn-off for you, just say no and move on
So a while ago I posted a thread about wanting to become a criminal, and someone called me out and gave me a really good idea on how to make a lot of money easily without crime, but I cant be fucking damned to start
Im scared to fail, and he only left me extremely small tidbits, its like a fucking game
I know I can do it, but I just cant start. How do you guys get the extra push to get going?
Pic unrelated
fucking quit or shut up, man. no one here can make YOU motivated. sounds harsh, but it's on you. ask for help all the time, not motivation.
>>17254044
Im asking for help on how you guys get motivated
do you have any particular thing that you want or an image of what you think would make your life worth chasing
it's actually pretty boring desu
>>17254009
It's not worth buying, but if you have one, you might as well hold onto it.
I hear they are hard to come by.
You can create a legacy that lives on farther than you ever will
Generations upon generations will remember you and base their lives on you.
Also skee ball
I talk like a fag and my shit is all retarded.
Are there any good resources online for learning to talk without an accent, or at least with a clear and respectable one?
Please help /adv/, I do not know where else to ask.

I can't stop cheating in college
I primarily do this by having foreigners do my papers on the cheap, and it sucks spending the money, but the real reason I hate it is because I'm terrified of being expected to know things when I start a new job. Nothing on my resume is a lie, and I have zero interest in accounting (math is by far my worst subject), but these are the main classes I cheat in. I absolutely loathe finance and bookkeeping and I have no interest in starting my own business. With that said, you never know when you'll need this info and I know...

... what the fuck are you even studying, you don't give a shit about it.
you don't seem to like it, go re-do your life from the beginning
You don't need to. What's the big deal? No one remembers all their courses from school. Just make sure you understand the shit directly related to your career.
>>17253993
I could've explained myself better. I only cheat in courses I give no fucks about. Finance essentially. I took finance accounting and quantitative analysis, then started cheating in managerial accounting. If I had a job as a long-term bookkeeper, I think I'd kill myself. Bus Systems Analysis and Design, Business Law, Principles of Management, Introduction to Info Tech are all courses I had fun with and did well. It's when we start talking about profits and efficiency percentages that my eyes glaze...

What's the best way in storing millions of dollars without putting it in a bank or risk easy access for thieves (personal safe)?
A briefcase?
>>17253992
I'm pretty sure that's easier to get to than a safe.
I just want to know the best way to store large amounts of money with the least amount of risk in losing all of it.

Build a fake wall in your house. Just don't hire anyone, do it yourself.

Maybe making assumptions but it sounds like she was raped

I'm partially the same as your gf. I feel for her.
Let me show you examples :
> " I love you, I cannot tell you how much I love you, and I'm seeing those scars. I mean I understand that if you don't talk about it, then I will never push you to do it. I just wanted you to know that I will always be here and that if someday you need to open your heart to someone, I will be here for you, as long as it takes."
Watch out, if this is really...

What's a good username for a youtube channel? I plan to do analysis videos on TV shows, books, maybe video games. What works for new youtubers? I'm not really looking to make money, but to just have a creative platform that would also be recognized.
Pewdiepie
>>17253926
UnderageB& Gaming
>>17253926
Doesn't really matter as long as it's easy to remember, not too weird, well structured. I can advise you on the form of the username, not the content.
Example :
> if you know pun with animals, always works
> foreign words
> avoid weird characters : x / digits (unless with a certain meaning)
I'm so tired of being sad
I'm in my mid-20s and since I was a very young teen in middle school I have been depressed. Not a week has gone by in the past decade where I haven't thought about suicide. Been to a thousand doctors and tried different medicines. Made a few attempts and fucked up my kidneys permanently from too many sleeping pills.
Just grinding through life missing out on things. I hardly even react to my own sadness anymore, every time I cross a bridge I visualize jumping to my death and the thought doesn't even phase me anymore it's...

Your brain is hell-bent on destroying itself. You have to break the cycle.
I don't know if that would help, but here is my a short version of my story. I had simillar problem, sadness, numbness, suicide thoughts almost every minute.
My first memories are filled with feeling misplacement, sadness, strangness. My first suicide thought and "attempt" was when I was six years old, when I crawled under my desk with a knife and tried to slice my neck, thankfully (?) got scared of pain and blood. I just felt like such a disapointment and waste of time/space despite being one of the best students in school and having many acomplishments....

Tell me please anyone who is familiar with this concept, is this bullshit or not. Because to be honest, I can't really believe in these "success stories". I've recenty read this book about porn by Gary Wilson. Seriously, how is this book supposed to be "scientific research", it's like 90% of its content consists of reddit posts. And almost EVERY post out there and on NoFap.com forum is quite the same: "blah blah, I was a hikki/basement dweller/hermit, virgin (or had girlfriend - not really my case) had no friends, did 100 days - and now...

when you masturbate, what do you think of yourself?
is what you're doing really okay for you?
once you have your answer you know what to do
nofap only works because it takes away the reward for doing nothing
you're basically trying to trick your body into realizing that the current behavior you're having is no longer giving you the positive results.
the same could arguably be achieved by cutting out junk food entirely
it isn't some magic thing that boosts your other senses and personality, you're just reconditioning yourself. it isn't going to fix any real internal problems.
Instead of sitting in the basement masturbating go out and talk to people
